United Airlines' Criticism Over Uniform Inspection Faces Backlash From Employee—Here's What They Shared
However, it seems like employees are quite disappointed because of the memo. Ever since the global pandemic began, the airline industry has been facing different issues, such as retrenchment, cost cutting, etc.
Although this is the case, many airline employees decided to stay with their companies. But, instead of getting honored for their loyalty, United Airlines seems to focus on how their staff dresses.

United Airlines pilot Steve Lindland receives a COVID-19 vaccine from RN Sandra Manella at United's onsite clinic at O'Hare International Airport on March 09, 2021 in Chicago, Illinois. United has been vaccinating about 250 of their O'Hare employees at the clinic each day for the past several days.
"It's no secret that Flight Attendants have experienced challenges obtaining uniform items," said the United Airlines employee union.
The group added that they also have issues obtaining the required full uniforms, especially since there are also new hires.
They further shared that there are some instances when they are forced to borrow from closets of other flight attendants to complete their required outfits.
Aside from this, the worker union also jokily said that while the management "recognizes" their hard work, they also look forward when the airliner is still making real efforts to solve more serious issues.
